INVESTORS READ THIS.

A week or two ago there came to
Anaheim ten families, seeking houses
to rent, while they could buy lot and
build for themselves. There was not
one cottage even to divide with the
ten families. There is not store to
be had to open new business. There
is demand for houses and stores.
Anaheim has two amusement halls,
but she needs fine opera house. The
citizens are contemplating the erection
Of one. Any person who will build a
house in Anaheim will rent it at a
good per centage on its cost the day it is
built. He who will put up store will
find tenant as quickly. His money
will be invested well Tor all time to
come. There is room for great ex-
pansion, the growth has begun and it
will continue.

Rev. e. 8. Jzzeli's Sermon at
The First Congregations

Tine ScFH
Rev. C. S. Uzzell, of the First Con-
gregational Church, preached very
interesting sermon yesterday morning,
taking his text from Exodus xvi, q.
"And they gathered it every morn
ing, every man according to his eat
ing; and when the sun waxed hot it
melted"
This text is in connection with the
children that were in bondage which
Moses led out to the promised land.
To-day l am before you to help the
Christians who have come here out OF
the bondage OF sin. God led the peo-
pie about, through the way of
the wilderness of the Red Sea,
and the children of Israel went
up out OF the land of Egypt.
He led these people in the day time
by pillar OF clouds as 1t was impossi-
BILE for one to journey across those
plains with the sun beating down on
the sands. In the night he went be-
fore them in a pillar of fire to give
them light. What wonderful thing
for God to break the suns rays from
so many thousands OF people and
what powerful tight to lead them by,
far exceeding our electric lights.
When these people had reached the
seashore who should they see back of
them but Pharoah and his army. Es-
cape seemed impossible, with mount
aims each side, the sea in front and
Pharaoh and his army behind. And
they said unto Moses, Because there
were no graves in Egypt hast thou
taken us away to die in the wilder
ness? Wherefore hast thou dealt thus
with us, to carry US forth out of Egypt?
Is not this the word we did tell thee
in Egypt, saying, let us alone. that we
may serve the Egyptians? For it
had been better for us to serve
the Egyptians, than that we should
die in the wilderness" Moses lifted
up his rod and stretched out his hand
and divided the water SO it stood like
the great walls eighty-four feet high.
Is not this evidence OF Gods omnipo-
tence, to divide water Tor twelve
miles at that depth? Yet unbelievers
will say that He did not divide the
waters, but He caused the wind to
blow SO the waters were shallow and
the people waded across. / say no
man could live in such a gale. Others
say that the sands were washed so
the people walked on the bars. What
was the matter with Pharaoh's men
Could not they walk in the sand?
Josephine says that Pharaoh's army
consisted of fifty thousand soldiers
on horsos, two hundred thousand
footmen, and not one of this number
was left to tell the fate of the army.
Oh, what a praise-mceting that must
have been when Moses followers sang
that song of redemption. ~ will
sing unto the Lord, for he hath
triumphed gloriously the horse and
his rider hath he thrown into the
sea-" 1t seems as though that they
could no longer doubt Gods power
but they did when they came to
Marah, for they found the water
bitter, and murmured against Moses
saying: ''What shall we drink? But
the Lord "showed him tree, which
when he had cast into the waters
the waters were made sweet" When
they had journeyed into the wilder
ness Of sin, land the white congrega
ton Of the Children Of Israel muir

Painters and Models In Paris.

Some interesting statistics relating
to painters have been lately compiled.
According to these there are in Paris
about 5000 artists OF the brush, of
whom between 1000 and 5000 are wo-
men, and 300 are foreigners Of various
nationalities. About 20 of these are
famous, while the others are made up
OF wealthy persons who paint for
pleasure, of people who are specially
employed by the Government, and of
the producers Of "pot-boilers," who
paint portraits and landscapes for
cheap picture dealers or for foreign ex-
portation. The army Of painters mod
els in Paris is a large one and in
increases day by day. Many Of these
models are educated, and sometimes
become painters themselves or eff
ficient art critics, whose judgment is
often consulted even by eminent art
lists. The models are only employed
between the ages of 18 and IS by
painters OF the nude, but some Of
chem find work until they are % or
20, after which their forms completely
lose the grace and contour Of early
growth. The women who "pose" in
the studies are generally paid at the
rate of 10f to PSF per diem. The most
numerous OF the models are the Italian
women, who are often preferred to
French because they are more tract
able, for the model has often to sit OF
stand immovable for hours, and this
the Parisienne is particularly disin-
clined to do.-[Daily Telegraph.

FAIR AN AHElM
Home-Seekers, Read Care
fully This Column.

Anaheim is the Oldest colony in
Southern California. The settlers
who, in 1857, selected this spot were
men of experience in all the varied
affairs of life. They looked all over
the State and pitched upon Anaheim
as, in all respects, the most attractive
spot they encountered. The history
OF the past thirty years, the wealth OF
the old settlers, the business done in
the town and the products of the sec
ton fully justify the choice made by
these president colonists.
Anaheim is situated about 20 miles
southeast OF Los Angeles on branch
of the S. P. Rail way, which is soon to
be developed into main line, termi.<
ating at San Diego. The town is four
teen miles from the Pacific ocean, at
a small bay known as the Anahem
Landing. There are about $500 peo-
pie in the town OF to-day, and there
are churches of all the leading de-
nominations, q fine public school
about the best in the county-stores
stocked with goods of all sorts, in
abundant supply and of the ve.y best
in the market. There is bank and a
good hotel-with second now build
ing and third quite certain soon to
be begun. Then a large and finely
equipped girls school will be erected
at very early day. The ground has
been bought-an ample piece, three
and half acres in the very heart of
the town-and the plans are being
drawn. The streets in Anaheim are
laid out with regularity and they are
broad and smooth, with sidewalks,
and many of them are aligned with
fine shade trees. The residences In
the town are model Of neatness and
comfort. The gardens bloom with
rare flowers at all seasons Of the year,
and everything bears an aspect OF
thrift and prosperity, such as one
rarely encounters in any town in any
section of the country.
For healthfulness fair Anaheim has
no rival on the coast. The town site
lies ON ridge of land, and the con-
tour slopes gently from Anaheim, fall
ing away to the east towards the
Santa Ana river, to the west towards
ii wide wash and southerly towards
the ocean. The soil is quite pourous
and this contour of the land and the
character of the soil furnish system
OF natural drainage which is quite
perfect.
The climate of Anaheim cannot be
surpassed in Southern California.
Northerly lie range of high mount
aims and IA miles to the south is the
sea. The air currents come from the
southwest and are always refreshing
and bracing because of their pas: age
over the unmeasurahle expanses OF
the Pacific ocean. Here is the place
for healthful, happy homes for all
corners in search of the very best of
Southern California.

NaiSs rHather Tonight.

Miss Mather will appear as Juliet"
at the Grand tonight, and this will be
the last performance of this fascinat-
ing role during the present season.
Sales of seats are already quite large.
A telephone message was received
here from San Bernardino yesterday
which states that every seat in the
house there is sold for Miss Mather's
first appearance in that town. This is
the more remarkable from the fact
that San Bernardino had not been
billed at all for the attraction.

SPECTATORS READ THIS.

The above description of Anaheim
will be found true in all respects. Go
and see before you buy elsewhere.
True as it is, it is only half the truth.
This town lies in the center OF an inn
nense area of the finest land on the
god green earth. This stretch of
country extends for from IA to 80
miles around. 1t takes in the rich
North Anaheim and Placentia country
on the north. Here the new town OF
Fullerton is going up at marvellous
pace. 1t has hotel, a great many
fine residences, and these are being
added to daily. To the south lies the
richest grain, fruit and dairy district
in the State. All about vines, oranges,
nuts, and all the citrus, deciduous,
semitropic and other fruits. grown to
perfection. There is railroad to An
aheim, now, with trains twice each
way daily. There is another railroad,
the California Central, now being
bull, from this point to Los Angeles.
1t Will be in operation by the end of
the year. The s. P. Company con-
templates ii e construction of line
from their depot in Anaheim through
North Anaheim, Fullerton and Placen-
tia. A company is now organized to
build railroad from Anaheim to An
aheim Landing, where a harbor is to
be constructed in the near future.
Anaheim is, therefore, to be the
center of very considerable system
of railroads. She will grow from this
on in population, business, wealth and
all the elements of prosperous place.
Remember the boom has just begun
here. Anaheim real estate has scarce
ly risen in price beyond the figures
ruling three or four years ago. While
all around lands are selling at $500,
$500 and $1,000 per acre, the pick OF
Anaheim is still to be had away below
the lowest figure above. With a good
business. unrivaled soil, the best
climate in the country, the most album
dant supply of water, crystal clear
Anaheim lands are held at less than
half the figures asked elsewhere for
property in all respects less desirable
than this. Now is the time to buy.
The boom is OIL and it will swell to a
| full tide in few weeks.

of the sort. Mrs. AstOr has for the last
ten years, for a fact known to me, and
much longer. according to her old
friends, lived moderately Oh plain nutri-
tiOuS food and drank very little wine.
Her establishment has had a skilled
French cook at $1,000 to $1,000 year to
set out the table with the most elaborate
and intricate of viands, but for Mrs.
AstOr's own eating especial dishes
have usually been prepared by negress

has been such as the farmers wives of
the United States live on, and not the

not mentioned in the history of the

turning point in the history of the great

backs from the old country road on a
slight elevation and is reached from the
south by crossing tumble-down foot

of the tree trickles little spring

A SOLEMN MANS THOUGHTS

Some men would rather see their
names in the police court record than
not be mentioned in print at all.
People are apt to feel proud of all the
good traits their children show. and
wonder where in blazes they got all their
bad ones.
Hard work is the best cure for most of
human ills. Sometimes, however, it has
its best effect when you can lie still and
see some other fellow doing it.
Considering what lot of good advice
is turned loose upon the world every
year, it does seem little strange some
times that nobody seems ever to follow
any of it.
Some writers never seem to learn that
it doesn't make half so much difference
what sort of writing tool you use as
it does what sort Of brain there-is be-
hind it.
One of the odd things of life is that
every man thinks he knows how to WOO
a woman, sail boat. drive a horse and
srun a newspaper without any previous
experience. That one little fact accounts
for a good deal of trouble in this world.

San Francisco Alta California.
A lady of this city, whose little feet
are always daintily shod, is also the UNI
fortunate pOssessOr of an obstinate and
burning corn upon the smallest toe of
her left foot. ChirOpodists had dug
tunnels through that corn, yanked at it
with nippers, smeared it with
singing OintmentS and, in despair.
suggested amputation. The corn held
the fort and successfully resisted the as
saults of the best razor the lady's hus-
band pOsseSsed-used, of course, with
out his knowledge. Finally a kind
friend suggested that if phosphorus was
rubbed on the afflicted toe the corn
would succumb. The lady determined
to try the remedy and did so Just before
retiring the other night and forgot to
tell her liege lord what she had done.
The hour of midnight had struck
when the husband suddenly awOke and
was somewhat startled to see the flash
of FREELY at the foot of the bed. Sleep
was again asserting its mastery. when
once more the sheen of that FREELY
caused the husband to open wide his
eyes. He could not recOllect ever hav-
ing seen FREELY in California, but he
could not QlSDelleVe Ills senses.
Again and again that FREELY
flashed its baleful CLEAN, effectu-
ally banishing all thought of sleep
from the now thoroughly aroused and
wrathy husband. He determined to
end his own misery and the firefly's ex-
istence simultaneously. He reached
out in the dark, CROPPED with his hand
about the carpet until he felt his own
heavy shoe. He seized the weapon,
slowly and cautiously he raised himself
in bed, and lifting high the sturdy
brOgan, broght it down with vigorous
whack on the innocent FREELY.
A wild shrek, an avalance of bed
clothes, and the husband lay sprawling
in the middle of the floor, while his wife
rolled around the bed, clasping her foot
and moaning in anguish. 1t was not
